Ensuring management continuity while providing access to the scale and resources of a wider group.
Key Stage Teacher Supply is a North West–based education recruitment agency providing teaching and support staff to schools across the region. The business has built a strong reputation for service quality, sector knowledge and long-standing relationships with schools and candidates.
The acquisition further strengthens Operam Education Group’s presence across the Midlands and North of England and follows its earlier acquisitions of Teachers UK and The Education Specialists, supporting the group’s buy-and-build strategy to establish itself as a leading independent education recruitment platform.
As part of the transaction, the existing management team will remain with the business, ensuring continuity for clients and candidates while benefiting from the additional scale, resources and strategic support of the wider group.
This is such an exciting time for Key Stage, our staff, our clients and our candidates. There is an excellent cultural fit between the two businesses and we look forward to continuing to provide a first class service to our schools throughout the region.
